b) Accept the scholarship on the Banco Santander website: after completing the acceptance period at the Online Office UV, you will receive an email directly from Banco Santander that will offer you the option of accepting the scholarship also on its website. You will receive this email when your scholarship is recorded and it may take a while. Once received, you will have a new period of 7 days to accept it following the instructions of Banco Santander.

3.- Admission letter from the destination university: Once you have received the admission letter issued by the destination university and before going to your destination, you must upload it to Online Office UV. To do this correctly, go to "my paperwork" and look for the Procedure International Program, then in the "actions" drop-down menu, choose "attach" and upload your letter of acceptance.

4.- Formalize your Learning Agreement with the Academic Coordinator of Mobility of your degree: You can find the opening hours for students on the web of your department. The initial study contract must be completed by the Student Services Portal so that you can enroll in international credits.

Once the study contract has been made and after your academic coordinator closes your contract in the computer application, you must access the self-enrolment according to the registration appointment communicated to you from the University of Valencia. It is expected that self-enrolment can be carried out from July 18, 2024.

Mobility students must pay at the University of Valencia the registration fees for the ECTS that the students include in their study contract. You will be exempt from doing so at the destination university.

6.- Get a health insurance: As your destination is not within the European Union, you will need international insurance.

The University of Valencia requires and advises hiring the following coverage:

• Medical and sanitary care for accidents or illness (required). Some foreign universities need a minimum fee for the coverage. Check their website.
• Repatriation or sanitary transportation for harmed or sick people (required).
• Repatriation or transportation in case of death (required).
• Family transportation in case of illness or death (recommended).
